The Final Embrace

It was a cold, dark wintry evening. The earth lay cuddled in snowy arms, yet the surroundings were cozy.

There was a soft tinker in the snow as his footsteps approached. From a distance, she could see his perfect silhouette. He was draped in a brown overcoat, his face an angelic reflection, his moist eyes sparkled like diamonds. Then, he stood and unfurled his arms to summon her.

Of everything in the world, what else could she had asked more from God, perhaps nothing. She gathered her strength, ran towards him and hugged him. A tearful river ran down in that tender moment to flood the entire universe.

A loud thud on the ground, eyes shut, enclosing the love filled glimpses.

Both found solace in each other’s arms lying forever in their final embrace.
